It's already after school hours, so when I call 411 I get the voicemail. Luckily, when you call Verizon 411 they txt msg you the listing, which thankfully had the address, which was 1001 Fubar Street. Crisis averted.

Moral of the story: Never trust your assigning website's addresses. Always look up the school's address on the school's website to verify.
Went with the school's address on their website and almost got burned, as the address on the web was not for the high school. My lesson was to trust the addresses in arbiter.
